The notes left by Ryunosuke Akutagawa after touring the disaster area post-disaster have also changed greatly in content, stating that many people helped each other after the disaster. Rather, it seems that there are now materials and photographs showing that the Japanese military deployed to protect Koreans before protecting Japanese, and guided Koreans to evacuate to safe areas. As for Yokohama, which is often misunderstood, the Yamate district was devastated by the Great Kanto Earthquake, but escaped the Great Yokohama Air Raid. What was hit in the Great Yokohama Air Raid was not the Yamate district. That is why in “Kokuriko-zaka kara (the film From Up on Poppy Hill)” the old buildings were not burned down and still survive.
